The floor plan information includes position information (coordinate information) such as a wall, a pillar, a floor, a ceiling, a pipe shaft 50 provided in a building, and a distribution board when the living space is represented in a three-dimensional coordinate system. . The simulator unit 149 generates an image showing the living space in 3D (or 2D) based on the input floor plan information, and displays the image on the display screen (input / output unit 11) of the ordering terminal device 10. . Next, the simulator unit 149 (unit display unit 152, etc.) displays the unit image 30A corresponding to the unit 30 with the water facility determined by the unit determination unit 141 in the manner described with reference to FIG. 4 on the living space image. Deploy. FIG. 6 shows an example of the living space image and the unit image 30A displayed by the simulator unit 149.

The unit image 30A shown in FIG. 6 is an image corresponding to the unit 30 provided with water facilities when the flush toilet 35, the bathtub 36, the wash basin 37, and the kitchen base 38 illustrated in FIG.
For example, the unit display unit 152 displays the unit image 30A generated by the unit image generation unit 151 near the center of the living space image. The user 1A can move or rotate the unit image 30A to an arbitrary position. For example, when the display screen is a touch panel, the user 1A drags to a desired position and releases the finger while touching the unit image 30A. Then, the display change unit 154 changes the display position of the unit image 30A to the position designated by the user 1A (position where the finger is released). When rotating the unit image 30A, for example, the user 1A touches a position near the center of the unit image 30A with one finger, touches a part of the unit image 30A with another finger, and near the center. Rotate in the desired direction around the finger touching. Then, the display change unit 154 rotates and displays the arrangement direction of the unit image 30A by the designated angle in the direction designated by the user 1A. In this way, when the user 1A moves the unit image 30A, the installation determining unit 142 determines the installation position and installation direction of the unit 30 equipped with water facilities. Specifically, the installation determining unit 142 calculates the coordinate information of the installation position of the unit image 30A, and further calculates the positional relationship between the calculated coordinate information and the coordinate information such as the surrounding walls and doors. Thereby, a part of the order information generated by the order information generation unit 143 is determined. That is, it is determined where to install the unit 30 equipped with water facilities, which is necessary for ordering the construction work from the contractor. Moreover, when the installation determination part 142 determines the installation position of the unit 30 provided with the water facility, the unit determination part 141 determines the remaining part of the unit 30 provided with the water facility. Specifically, the unit determining unit 141 determines the height of the ceiling at the installation position of the unit 30 equipped with water equipment, the distance from the installation position of the unit 30 equipped with water equipment to the pipe shaft 50, and the respective coordinate information. Calculate based on When the unit determining unit 141 calculates the height of the ceiling and the distance to the pipe shaft 50, the remaining part of the configuration of the unit 30 including the water facility to be ordered is determined. The remaining part is the height of the standing unit 33 and the length of the upper cover unit 34. When the unit determining unit 141 determines the height of the standing unit 33 and the length of the upper cover unit 34, a part of the order information generated by the order information generating unit 143 is determined. That is, the size of the upright unit 33 and the upper cover unit 34 included in the unit 30 provided with the water equipment and the size of the upright unit 33 and the upper cover unit 34 that are necessary for ordering the unit 30 provided with the water equipment from the manufacturer. The price depends on the size. For example, the taller the standing unit 33 is, the higher the ceiling, the higher the price of the unit 30 with water equipment. Further, for example, the longer the distance to the pipe shaft 50, the longer the upper cover unit 34, and the higher the price of the unit 30 equipped with water equipment.

As described above, for example, the flush toilet 35 and the bathtub 36 can stand up and fall. For example, when the user 1A performs an operation of lifting the movable side of the image of the bathtub 36 constituting a part of the unit image 30A, the display changing unit 154 displays the image of the unit image 30A in which the bathtub 36 is in the standing state. It may be displayed.

FIG. 7 is a fourth diagram illustrating the living space display processing and order information generation processing in one embodiment of the present invention.
A unit image 30A shown in FIG. 7 is obtained by rotating and displaying the unit image 30A shown in FIG. 6 based on the operation of the user 1A.
In addition, furniture such as a desk, a chair, a sofa, and a bed is displayed in the image of the living space shown in FIG. For example, various furniture images are recorded in the storage unit 13. Then, when the user 1A inputs the furniture type, size information, and the like owned by the user 1A to the ordering terminal device 10 via the input / output unit 11, the furniture display unit 153 stores the information based on the input information. An appropriate furniture image is read from the unit 13 to generate a furniture image, and the furniture image is displayed at a predetermined position in the living space. Similar to the unit image 30A, the user 1A performs an operation of moving or rotating the furniture image to a desired position. Then, the display change part 154 changes and displays a furniture image in the position and direction which the user 1A designated.
Thus, since the ordering terminal device 10 can display the living space when the unit image 30A and the furniture image are rotated or moved in any direction by any amount, the user 1A can Until the layout is satisfactory in appearance and usability, the installation position and installation direction of the unit 30 equipped with water facilities can be repeatedly simulated and planned.

In addition, when the user 1A performs an operation of zoning the living space, the space division display unit 155 displays the space divided based on the operation in a color different from other spaces, for example. For example, when zoning the entire living space into a living room, a dining room, a bedroom, a study, or a child's room, the user 1A designates the range (area) of the space to be used for each use by surrounding it with a finger. Then, for each specified area, an input operation is performed to associate the use of the area (for example, one of the areas is selected by touch operation, and the character “living” is used as the use of the area. Input). Then, for example, the space division display unit 155 displays the area with a color associated with “living room” in advance (for example, the area 60 in FIG. 7).
In this way, the user 1A can first arrange the unit image 30A so as to fit each region after zoning after zoning the living room, dining room, and the like.

FIG. 8 is a diagram for explaining the effect of the ordering system according to the embodiment of the present invention.
FIG. 8 (a) shows an example of the ratio of the cost for the installation work of the incidental members of the conventional equipment.
In a conventional ordering method for installation work, the contractor 4A generally estimates and presents the price. For example, the contractor 4A estimates the cost of facilities such as a bath, a toilet bowl, and a kitchen table. Further, the construction contractor 4A estimates a construction cost including labor costs and various expenses necessary for the installation work of the equipment, and adds the construction cost to the equipment cost. Then, the contractor 4A presents the added amount to the user 1A. In the example shown in FIG. 8A, when the amount to be presented to the user 1A is 100%, the equipment cost is 50% and the construction cost is 50%.

FIG. 8B shows an example of the ratio of the cost for installation work using the unit 30 equipped with water facilities.
In the case of installation work using the unit 30 equipped with water facilities, the manufacturer 2A determines a price including the work cost with the user 1A. That is, the ordering system 1 performs an estimate calculation of the amount including the construction cost for the integrated facility 30 planned by the user 1A and presents the amount. If the user 1A is satisfied with the presented amount and places an order, the manufacturer 2A charges the user 1A for the amount of the estimated calculation. The manufacturer 2A pays a part (construction cost) of the amount charged to the user 1A to the construction contractor 4A. In the example shown in FIG. 8B, when the amount charged to the user 1A is 100%, the construction cost paid to the construction company 4A is 20%, and the manufacturer's sales are 80% of the total. This indicates that the installation work of the unit 30 provided with the water equipment can be performed easily and in a short construction period, and can be suppressed at a lower price than the conventional installation work. In addition, there are few uncertain elements in the installation work of the unit 30 with water equipment, and if the installation position and installation direction of the unit 30 with water equipment are determined, the construction cost for the installation work is accurately estimated. be able to. Therefore, the maker 2A can determine the amount including the construction cost on the maker side without requesting the construction contractor 4A to estimate. Thus, by presenting the amount including the construction cost, the user 1A can know in advance the cost of installing the unit 30 equipped with water facilities, and is not charged more than necessary. It is possible to get rid of the suspicion of whether or not you will be charged for the additional amount after completing the construction.

In addition, the total cost of installing the unit 30 equipped with water facilities can be reduced as compared with the installation work of the incidental members of the conventional equipment, as much as the construction costs can be kept low. Improve competitiveness. In addition, for the contractor 4A, although the sales per construction will decrease, not only the installation work, but the effort and time taken for the preparation will be significantly less than the conventional installation work, thus improving the sales efficiency. Can be made. In addition, the user can perform reconstruction or the like at a low cost, and the life in a new living space can be started earlier by shortening the construction period.

Next, the flow of the order information generation process will be described with reference to FIG.
FIG. 9 is a flowchart illustrating an example of order information generation processing according to an embodiment of the present invention.
As a premise, the user 1A downloads an application program used for planning and ordering processing of the unit 30 equipped with the water facility from the website of the manufacturer 2A that manufactures and sells the unit 30 equipped with the water facility. Installed on tablet devices. This tablet terminal is the ordering terminal device 10. This application program includes programs that demonstrate the functions of the unit determination unit 141 to the simulator unit 149.

First, the user 1A starts an application program and performs an operation for instructing the start of planning. Then, the simulator unit 149 starts a planning process (step S11). First, the simulator unit 149 displays an image of an input screen that prompts the user 1A to input attribute information (family structure, etc.), floor plan information of a living space for planning, and the like.
The user 1 </ b> A inputs these pieces of information to the ordering terminal device 10.

Next, the unit determination unit 141 displays an image of an input screen that prompts the user to select the incidental member of the facility to be installed in the unit 30 provided with the water facility, and in which direction to install the incidental member of the selected facility. . For example, the unit determination unit 141 displays a screen as described with reference to FIG. User 1A inputs the combination of the incidental member of the installation installed in the unit 30 provided with the water installation, and the combination method. The input / output unit 11 acquires information input by the user 1 </ b> A and outputs the information to the unit determination unit 141. The unit determination part 141 determines the incidental member of the some installation installed in the unit 30 provided with the water installation (step S12).

Next, the simulator unit 149 displays the living space image on the display screen based on the floor plan information input by the user 1A. The simulator unit 149 displays the unit image 30A on the display screen. When the user 1A performs an operation of changing or rotating the position of the unit 30 provided with the water facility, the simulator unit 149 changes and displays the installation position and orientation of the unit image 30A. When the simulator unit 149 changes the installation position and orientation of the unit image 30A, the installation determination unit 142 determines the installation position of the unit 30 including the water facility (step S13). Similarly, the installation determining unit 142 determines the installation direction of the unit 30 equipped with water facilities. Specifically, the installation determining unit 142 generates information indicating where to install the unit 30 including the water facility from the coordinate information of the unit image 30A. For example, the installation determining unit 142 generates information such that the unit 30 including the water facility is separated from the wall X by Y cm and is installed in a direction in which the surface on which the bathtub 36 is provided is parallel to the wall X. The installation determination unit 142 outputs information on the installation position and installation direction of the unit 30 including the determined water facility to the order information generation unit 143.

Next, the unit determining unit 141 determines a unit equipped with water equipment (step S14). Specifically, the unit determination unit 141 is configured so that the simulator unit 149 determines the height of the ceiling at the installation position of the unit 30 equipped with water facilities and the distance from the installation position of the unit 30 equipped with water facilities to the pipe shaft 50. Calculation is based on the coordinate information of the displayed living space image. When the unit determining unit 141 calculates the height of the ceiling and the distance to the pipe shaft 50, the unit determining unit 141 determines the height of the standing unit 33 and the length of the upper cover unit 34. By determining the combination information of the incidental members of the equipment determined in step S12, the height of the standing unit 33, and the length of the upper cover unit 34, the configuration (specification) of the unit 30 having the water equipment is determined. . The unit determining unit 141 outputs the determined configuration information of the unit 30 including the water facility (the incidental member of the facility to be combined, the height of the standing unit 33, the length of the upper cover unit 34) to the order information generating unit 143.

Next, the estimate calculation unit 148 calculates the estimated amount (step S15). First, the estimate information acquisition unit 147 acquires information necessary for estimate calculation. Specifically, the estimated information acquisition unit 147 includes information on the types (such as model numbers) of the incidental members of the equipment to be combined with the unit 30 equipped with water equipment from the unit determination unit 141, information on the height of the standing unit 33, and the upper cover. Information on the length of the unit 34 is acquired. The estimate information acquisition unit 147 outputs the acquired information to the estimate calculation unit 148. The estimation calculation unit 148 estimates the price of the unit 30 having the water facility based on the incidental member of the facility to be combined, the height of the standing unit 33, and the length of the upper cover unit 34. For example, the storage unit 13 stores price information such as “bathtub X1 yen”, “toilet bowl X2 yen”, “kitchen stand X3 yen” in association with the type of ancillary members of equipment, for example, and an estimate calculation unit 148 reads the price information of each incidental member of the equipment combined with the unit 30 provided with the water equipment from the storage unit 13 and sums them (price α). In addition, for example, the storage unit 13 stores price information such as “height Y1 to Y2 X4 yen” and “height Y2 to Y3 X5 yen” in association with the height of the standing unit 33, and estimates are calculated. The unit 148 reads price information corresponding to the height of the standing unit 33 determined by the unit determination unit 141 from the storage unit 13 (price β). Further, for example, the storage unit 13 records price information such as “length Z1 to Z2 X6 yen”, “length Z2 to Z3 X7 yen” in association with the length of the upper cover unit 34, and is estimated. The calculation unit 148 reads price information corresponding to the length of the upper cover unit 34 determined by the unit determination unit 141 from the storage unit 13 (price γ). The estimate calculation unit 148 adds the price α, the price β, and the price γ, and calculates the price of the unit 30 having the water facility. Moreover, the estimation calculation part 148 calculates the construction cost concerning the installation construction of the unit 30 provided with the water facility. For example, the storage unit 13 records the construction cost according to the time and difficulty of the installation work, and the estimation calculation unit 148 includes, for example, the unit 30 including the water facility determined by the installation determination unit 142. Calculate the time and difficulty of installation work based on information such as the installation position (for example, it takes more time to install on the second floor than on the first floor, or when the distance to the pipe shaft 50 is long or on the way If a beam is present, the difficulty level is high). The estimate calculation unit 148 reads information on the construction cost according to the calculated difficulty level from the storage unit 13 and adds it to the price of the unit 30 equipped with the water facility. The added value is the final estimated amount. The estimate calculation unit 148 outputs the calculated estimated amount to the order information generation unit 143 and the simulator unit 149. The simulator unit 149 displays the estimated amount on the display screen. The user 1A who is satisfied with the estimated amount inputs the date on which the installation work is desired to the ordering terminal device 10. When the estimated amount is not convinced, the user 1A can perform planning many times on the display screen.

Next, the contractor determining unit 144 determines the contractor who performs the installation work of the unit 30 equipped with water facilities (step S16). For example, when the user 1A has determined a contractor in advance and the user 1A inputs the information of the contractor 4A to the ordering terminal device 10, the contractor determination unit 144 selects the contractor who performs the installation work as the user 1A. Is determined by the construction contractor 4A. Moreover, the contractor determination unit 144 may select a contractor based on the address of the building where the installation work is performed. For example, in the storage unit 13, the list information of the contractors is recorded in association with the address. When the user 1A inputs the address information of the building where the installation work is to be performed, the residence position information acquisition unit 145 acquires the address information and outputs the information to the contractor determination unit 144. Next, the contractor determination unit 144 selects, for example, the contractor 4A existing at the address closest to the address of the building where the installation work is performed, and determines the contractor as the contractor 4A that performs the installation work. Moreover, the contractor determination unit 144 may select the contractor 4A based on the schedule of the contractor, the inventory status of the unit 30 equipped with the water facility, and the like. For example, the construction execution prediction information acquisition unit 146 periodically inquires the contractor terminal device 40 of each contractor 4A to acquire schedule information of each contractor 4A. Then, the contractor determination unit 144 selects a contractor 4A that has a free schedule during the work period desired by the user 1A. Alternatively, the construction execution prediction information acquisition unit 146 inquires of the order receiving terminal device 20B about the inventory status of the unit 30 equipped with water facilities and the time when the production is completed and can be shipped, and acquires the information. And the construction contractor determination part 144 may select the construction contractor 4A which has an empty schedule at the time when the unit 30 provided with the water facility can be delivered. When the contractor determination unit 144 determines the contractor 4A, the contractor determination unit 144 outputs information on the contractor 4A (contact information such as name, address, and mail address) and schedule information for performing the installation work to the order information generation unit 143.

Finally, the order information generation unit 143 generates order information including information on the configuration, installation position, estimated amount, contractor 4A, and schedule of the unit 30 equipped with water facilities (step S17). When the order information is generated, the order terminal device 10 transmits the generated order information to the manufacturer's order terminal device 20B. As described above, according to the ordering system 1 of the present embodiment, the user 1A can perform planning of a desired living space, estimation including construction costs, and the like without involving the contractor 4A.

Next, an example of processing of the ordering terminal device 10 when the user 1A plans the layout of the living space will be described. This process explains steps S11 to S14 in the flowchart of FIG. 9 in more detail.
FIG. 10 is a flowchart showing an example of a display process of the living space in one embodiment of the present invention.
As a premise, the user 1A downloads, for example, an application program used for living space planning from a manufacturer's website that manufactures and sells the unit 30 equipped with water facilities, and installs it on a tablet terminal or the like that the user owns Yes. This tablet terminal is the ordering terminal device 10. In addition, the information downloaded from the website includes information on planning examples of layouts including units 30 equipped with water facilities by other users. The planning examples by other users include the family structure and floor plan of the users. The information is recorded in the storage unit 13 in association with the information.

First, the user 1A starts an application program and performs an operation for instructing the start of planning, for example. Then, the support information display unit 156 displays an image of an input screen that prompts the user 1A to input attribute information. For example, the support information display unit 156 displays an image including a message such as “Please enter the family structure of the person who lives in the living space to be planned”. For example, the user 1A inputs information such as “household XX”, “spouse XX”, “first child XX”, “second child XX”, and the like. The input / output unit 11 acquires attribute information such as the family structure input by the user 1A (step S21) and records it in the storage unit 13. The attribute information input by the user 1A is used, for example, for presenting as a reference information a planning example performed by another user having a similar family structure.

Next, the support information display unit 156 displays an image of an input screen that prompts the user 1A to input floor plan information for the living space where planning is performed. For example, the support information display unit 156 may display an interface that allows the user 1A to select and arrange components constituting the floor plan such as a living room, a front door, and a kitchen table. Alternatively, the support information display unit 156 may display an interface that allows the user 1 </ b> A to select a floor plan similar to his / her living space from a typical floor plan sample. The user 1A inputs the floor plan information of the living space to be planned. The input / output unit 11 acquires the floor plan information input by the user 1A (step S22) and records it in the storage unit 13. The floor plan information input by the user 1A is used by the living space display unit 150 to display a living space image.

Next, the support information display unit 156 displays an image of an input screen that prompts the user 1A to input a life plan in the near future. For example, the support information display unit 156 displays a screen for inputting whether the user 1A has a plan for marriage, childbirth, living with a parent, etc. in the near future. User 1A enters whether these events are scheduled in the near future. The input / output unit 11 acquires information on a near future life plan input by the user 1A (step S23) and records it in the storage unit 13. The near future life plan information input by the user 1A can be used to propose a layout of a future living space close to the user 1A.

Next, the support information display unit 156 displays an image of an input screen that prompts input of furniture information used by the user 1A. For example, the user 1A inputs information such as the type and size of furniture owned by the user 1A. The input / output unit 11 acquires furniture information input by the user 1 </ b> A (step S <b> 24) and records it in the storage unit 13. The furniture information input by the user 1A is used by the furniture display unit 153 to display a furniture image.

Next, the support information display unit 156 displays an image of an input screen that prompts the user to select the incidental member of the facility to be installed in the unit 30 provided with the water facility, and in which direction to install the incidental member of the selected facility To do. For example, the support information display unit 156 displays a screen as described with reference to FIG. User 1A inputs the combination of the incidental member of the installation installed in the unit 30 provided with the water installation, and the combination method. The input / output unit 11 acquires information on the unit 30 including the water facility input by the user 1 </ b> A and outputs the information to the unit determination unit 141. The unit determining unit 141 determines a unit equipped with water equipment (step S25).

Next, the ordering terminal apparatus 10 performs a living space planning process in accordance with a user operation (step S26).
Specifically, first, the living space display unit 150 displays the living space image on the display screen based on the floor plan information input by the user 1A. The unit display unit 152 displays the unit image 30A on the display screen. When the user 1A performs an operation of changing or rotating the position of the unit 30 including the water facility, the display changing unit 154 changes and displays the arrangement position and orientation of the unit image 30A.
At this time, the proposal information display unit 158 stores the planning example by another user based on at least one of the attribute information such as the family structure input by the user 1A, the floor plan information, or the life plan information in the near future. 13 and the list thereof may be displayed on the display screen. The user 1A can determine the position where the unit 30 with the water facility is arranged while referring to a planning example by another user having a family structure similar to that of the user or a floor plan similar to that of his / her living space. .

Further, the furniture display unit 153 displays a furniture image based on the furniture information input by the user 1A. When the user 1A performs an operation of changing or rotating the position of each piece of furniture, the display changing unit 154 changes and displays the arrangement position and orientation of the furniture image that is the operation target. Also in the case of furniture, the user 1A can try various arrangements of furniture while referring to planning examples by other users displayed by the proposal information display unit 158.
In addition, when the user 1A performs an operation of zoning the living space, the space division display unit 155 displays each zoned area with a color different from that of the other areas. The user 1A can adjust the arrangement position and orientation of the unit 30 provided with water facilities according to the arrangement of each region. For example, the user 1A may adjust the surface on which the kitchen table 38 of the unit 30 equipped with water facilities is installed so as to face the dining room. Or user 1A may arrange unit 30 provided with water equipment so that toilet bowl 35 or washstand 37 may be near a bedroom.

In addition, the user 1A can switch between standing and lying down of the bathtub 36, for example, and can test the difference in usability of the space between when someone is taking a bath and when no one is taking a bath. In addition, the user 1A may call the screen illustrated in FIG. 5, for example, and perform an operation of changing a part of the incidental member of the facility installed in the unit 30 provided with the water facility set in step S25. In that case, based on the selection operation of the user 1A, the unit determination unit 141 determines the combination of the accessory members of the equipment and the combination method, and the unit image generation unit 151 generates a unit image 30A by a new combination. . And the unit display part 152 displays the new unit image 30A in the position currently displayed before changing the incidental member of an installation.

Further, when the display change unit 154 changes the arrangement of the unit 30 or the furniture provided with the water facility based on the operation of the user 1A, the arrangement position evaluation unit 157 determines the interval between the furniture and the wall, the furniture and the water facility. The interval between the units 30 with the unit and the unit 30 with the wall and the water facility are calculated based on the coordinate information of the positions where the units are arranged, and the calculated interval is narrower than a predetermined value. If this is the case, a display may be made to warn that the space will be narrow and difficult to pass through, making it difficult to use. Alternatively, information such as the positional relationship between the unit 30 equipped with water equipment and furniture and the positional relationship between the unit 30 equipped with water equipment and the area after zoning, in which warning information should be displayed in the storage unit 13 in advance, is recorded. In addition, the arrangement position evaluation unit 157 may display warning information based on this positional relationship information (for example, the flush toilet 35 installed in the unit 30 equipped with water facilities faces the dining room). .

Further, the arrangement position evaluation unit 157 may display the advice information based on information indicating a desirable positional relationship such as the unit 30 provided with furniture and water equipment recorded in the storage unit 13 in advance. For example, in the storage unit 13, a range of an appropriate distance between the unit 30 provided with water equipment and the wall is recorded, and the distance between the unit 30 provided with the water equipment arranged by the user 1A and the wall is the range. If it seems to be vacant, a message may be displayed that advises that the unit 30 equipped with water equipment is brought closer to the wall.
In addition, the arrangement position evaluation unit 157 may display how many people can use the space at the same time for each space created as a result of the arrangement of the units 30 and the like equipped with water facilities.

User 1A plans the living space, and when a satisfactory layout is completed, saves the layout. For example, a “save button” is displayed on the display screen, and the user 1A performs an operation of pressing the save button at an arbitrary timing. Then, the control unit 14 writes the floor plan of the living space currently displayed on the display screen, writes the unit image 30A and the installation position and installation direction information (layout information) of the furniture image in the storage unit 13 and stores them (step). S27). The user 1A can save a plurality of favorite layout information, and can select a layout to be finally adopted from them.

According to the present embodiment, the user 1A can arrange the incidental member of the facility at a desired position without worrying about the position of the pipe, so that the degree of freedom in planning the living space is expanded. For example, when remodeling is performed, the position of the unit 30 having the water facility can be determined regardless of the position of the incidental member of the facility before the remodeling. Moreover, user 1A can utilize living space widely by utilizing the unit 30 provided with the water facility which consolidated the water facility compactly. Moreover, since the unit 30 provided with water facilities is relatively easy to move, the user 1 </ b> A can change the family structure and lifestyle by appropriately planning using the ordering terminal device 10 of the present embodiment. In addition, the layout can be continuously changed. Moreover, since the user 1A can repeatedly try various layouts until he / she is satisfied, the user 1A can obtain high satisfaction.

Next, a flow of transmission processing for transmitting layout information planned by the user 1A to the order prediction device 20A will be described.
FIG. 11 is a flowchart illustrating an example of a process for transmitting layout information of a living space according to an embodiment of the present invention.
First, in the ordering terminal device 10, the control unit 14 determines whether or not the setting information or the layout information has changed (step S31). The setting information is information input by the user 1A in steps S21 to S25 in the flowchart of FIG. The layout information is information stored in step S27. When there is no change (step S31; No), it waits until a change occurs. When there is a change (step S31; Yes), the control unit 14 outputs the changed information to the communication unit 12, and instructs the communication unit 12 to transmit the changed information. The communication unit 12 transmits the changed information to the order prediction device 20A (step S32).

The order prediction device 20A receives the information transmitted from the ordering terminal device 10, writes the received new information in the storage unit of the own device, and saves it (step S33). Next, the order receiving prediction apparatus 20A determines whether or not there is a high possibility of receiving an order for the unit 30 provided with the water facility installed in the living space planned by the user 1A (step S34). For example, the order prediction device 20A may estimate whether or not there is a high possibility of an order based on an estimation model that estimates the accuracy of the order. Alternatively, the accuracy of the order received by the employee 2A with reference to the layout information transmitted from the ordering terminal device 10 is input to the order prediction device 20A, and the order prediction device 20A is based on the input order accuracy. Thus, it may be determined whether or not the order is likely to be received. When the possibility of an order is not high (step S34; No), the order prediction device 20A waits until the changed information is transmitted next from the ordering terminal device 10. When the possibility of ordering is high (step S34; Yes), the order forecasting apparatus 20A configures the configuration of the unit 30 including the water facility set by the user 1A during the planning (installs the incidental member of any facility). Is registered as order schedule information that is highly likely to be received (step S35). The manufacturer can perform production management and inventory management of the unit 30 equipped with water facilities in consideration of this order schedule information. As a result, the manufacturer can shorten the delivery date and prevent the occurrence of surplus inventory and the delivery date delay. Further, in general renovation and the like, the contractor must go to the residence of the user 1A many times to ask the user 1A's wishes and adjust the connection at the site, but the unit 30 equipped with water facilities When remodeling, etc. by using the unit, the unit 30 equipped with unitized water facilities is installed at the desired position, and piping is simply connected to the pipe shaft through the ceiling side. can do. According to the characteristics of the unit 30 equipped with the water facility and the ordering system 1 of the present embodiment, the user 1A can perform planning until it is satisfied without receiving interference from other people. Since the unit 30 equipped with water facilities can be obtained quickly and the renovation can be completed relatively easily by the order prediction of the manufacturer by the apparatus 20A, the entire period required for the renovation can be shortened.

In the above embodiment, the case where an application program having each function of the control unit 14 is installed on the ordering terminal device 10 side has been described as an example. For example, a server for providing a planning function on the manufacturer side A terminal device is installed, an application program having each function of the control unit 14 is installed in the server terminal device, and a living space is provided in a tablet terminal or PC owned by the user 1A as a Web service via a network such as the Internet. It is also possible to provide an embodiment that provides a planning function.

Next, the overall flow of the ordering process using the ordering system 1 of the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIG.
FIG. 12 is a flowchart illustrating an example of ordering processing according to an embodiment of the present invention.
First, the user 1A plans a living space using the ordering terminal device 10 (step S41). The planning process for the living space has already been described with reference to FIGS. When the user 1A can create a layout of a favorite living space, the user 1A can save the layout information (regardless of whether the layout is finally ordered). For example, a “save button” is displayed on the display screen, and the user 1A performs an operation of pressing the save button at an arbitrary timing when a favorite layout is made. Then, the installation determination part 142 determines the installation position and installation direction of the unit 30 provided with water equipment, and the unit determination part 141 determines the structure of the unit 30 provided with water equipment. The control unit 14 records layout information including configuration information and the like of the unit 30 including the water facility determined by the unit determination unit 141 and the like in the storage unit 13, and the communication unit 12 stores the recorded layout information in the order prediction device. It transmits to 20A (step S42).

The order prediction device 20A receives the layout information transmitted from the ordering terminal device 10, writes the received information in the storage unit of the own device, and saves it. Next, the order prediction device 20A performs order preparation processing for the unit 30 having the water facility included in the layout information that the user 1A is planning (step S43). For example, the order prediction device 20A estimates whether or not there is a high possibility of an order based on an estimation model that estimates the accuracy of the order. When it is estimated that there is a high possibility of receiving an order, the order receiving prediction apparatus 20A checks the stock status of the incidental members of the equipment to be combined with the unit 30 equipped with the water equipment under planning. Production of the incidental member may be scheduled. In this way, the user 1A acquires the layout information being planned and performs the order preparation process, so that the manufacturer delivers the unit 30 equipped with the water facility to the user 1A with a short delivery time without having extra inventory. can do.

On the other hand, in the ordering terminal device 10, the user 1A continues the planning. When the final layout is determined, the installation determining unit 142 determines the installation position and installation direction of the unit 30 provided with the water facility, and the unit determining unit 141 determines the unit including the water facility. Further, the estimate calculation unit 148 calculates the estimated amount. In addition, the construction execution prediction information acquisition unit 146 makes an inquiry about the delivery date of the unit 30 provided with the water facility in the order receiving terminal device 20B (step S44). The order receiving terminal device 20B responds with a delivery date (step S46). In addition, the construction execution prediction information acquisition unit 146 inquires of the contractor terminal device 40 about a schedule that allows installation work (step S45). The contractor terminal device 40 responds about the schedule (step S47). When the delivery date of the unit 30 equipped with water facilities and the schedule information of the contractor 4A are acquired, the order information generation unit 143 generates order information (step S48). The order information generation unit 143 outputs the order information to the communication unit 12, and the communication unit 12 transmits the order information to the order receiving terminal device 20B (step S49). When receiving the ordering information, the order receiving terminal device 20B transmits the construction request information to the construction contractor terminal device 40 of the construction contractor 4A designated by the ordering information (step S50). The construction request information includes, for example, the configuration of the unit 30 equipped with water equipment, the installation position, the installation direction, the schedule information of the installation work, and the like. Upon receiving the construction request, the construction contractor 4A goes to the building where the installation work is to be performed and conducts a field survey for final confirmation (step S51). In the installation work of the incidental members of the conventional equipment, it was necessary for the contractor 4A to conduct on-site investigations many times. However, when using the unit 30 equipped with water facilities, installation is not time-consuming, so The number of times can be reduced (for example, once). Further, the manufacturer 2A ships the unit 30 equipped with the ordered water equipment to the site (step S52), and the contractor 4A performs the installation work of the unit 30 equipped with the water equipment (step S53).

According to the ordering system 1 of the present embodiment, the user 1A can refer to the estimated amount in real time while planning the living space using the ordering terminal device 10. In addition, the estimated amount includes construction costs, and additional work that is not known at the time of estimation is necessary due to on-site surveys by the contractor, etc., so it will not be higher than at the time of estimation. Can be ordered. In addition, since the manufacturer 2A can obtain the layout information during the planning before sending the order information by the user 1A, the manufacturer 2A can grasp in advance which unit 30 is equipped with the water equipment, which is efficient. Inventory management and production management. Further, by omitting various adjustments between the user 1A and the contractor 4A, it is possible to provide the user 1A with installation work for the unit 30 equipped with water facilities at a short delivery time and at a low price. Will improve.

In the above embodiment, the case where the application program having each function of the control unit 14 is installed in the ordering terminal device 10 has been described as an example. However, for example, the control is performed by the order receiving terminal device 20B. An embodiment in which an application program having each function of the unit 14 is installed and a planning function for a living space is provided as a Web service via a network such as the Internet to a tablet terminal or a PC owned by the user 1A may be used.
Further, in FIG. 12 and the like, the ordering information generated by the ordering information generation unit 143 has been described using an example in which the information on the construction contractor 4A determined by the contractor determination unit 144 is included. Then, you may comprise so that the ordering information which does not include the information of the construction contractor 4A may be transmitted to the order receiving terminal device 20B without determining the construction contractor 4A. In that case, for example, the manufacturer 2A confirms the ordering information received by the order receiving terminal device 20B, and introduces an appropriate construction contractor 4A to the user 1A. If the agreement of the user 1A is obtained, the manufacturer 2A performs an operation input for transmitting the construction request information to the contractor 4A to the order receiving terminal device 20B. Then, the order receiving terminal device 20B transmits construction request information to the construction contractor terminal device 40 of the construction contractor 4A introduced by the manufacturer 2A.

Note that the ordering terminal device 10, the order receiving prediction device 20A, the order receiving terminal device 20B, and the contractor terminal device 40 have a computer system therein. Each process in the ordering terminal device 10 and the like described above is stored in a computer-readable recording medium in the form of a program, and the above-described processing is performed by the computer reading and executing this program. . Here, the computer-readable recording medium is a magnetic disk, a magneto-optical disk, a CD-ROM, a DVD-ROM, a semiconductor memory, or the like. Alternatively, the computer program may be distributed to the computer via a communication line, and the computer that has received the distribution may execute the program.

Furthermore, what can implement | achieve the function mentioned above in combination with the program already recorded on the computer system, what is called a difference file (difference program) may be sufficient.
Further, the ordering terminal device 10 may be composed of a single computer, or may be composed of a plurality of computers that are communicably connected. For example, the configuration of the simulator unit 149 is separately provided as a simulation device, and the ordering terminal device 10 ′ excluding the simulator unit 149 obtains information determined by a user operation on the simulation device and generates ordering information. Can be configured. In this case, for example, the ordering terminal device 10 ′ includes a unit determination unit 141 that determines combinations of incidental members of a plurality of types of facilities in the unit 30 having water facilities based on the acquired information, and the acquired information. Based on the installation determination unit 142 that determines the installation position of the unit 30 with the water facility in the living space, and the order provided to the contractor according to the unit 30 and the installation position with the water facility determined by the user An order information generation unit 143 that generates information may be included.

In addition, it is possible to appropriately replace the constituent elements in the above-described embodiments with known constituent elements without departing from the spirit of the present invention. The technical scope of the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and various modifications can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention. The order receiving terminal device 20B is an example of an order receiving system, and the order predicting device 20A is an example of an order receiving prediction system.

According to the above display system, ordering system, and ordering method, the user can plan the layout of the living space by freely arranging the equipment and furniture including the incidental members of the equipment. When a user performs construction to install an incidental member of equipment, the user only determines a unit equipped with a water facility capable of combining incidental members of plural types of equipment and an installation position of the unit equipped with the water equipment. Thus, it is possible to generate ordering information including an amount necessary for installation work and a delivery date. Since the delivery date and amount of money for construction orders are accurately determined, it is possible to prevent inventory costs, order omissions and damage due to manufacturing delays.
